Hi,
  I posted an article looking for local bus SCSI controller that supports
SCSI-2 FAST. I just wonder if this beast does exist, and is it supported by
*BSD ? Since I am having ISA + VLB, I can't go for AHA1742. A kind person
replied to me b4 saying Bustek 445 and Ultrastor 43F both can be used on a
VLB board, and I just wonder is there any driver for it on *BSD?

  Many thanks in advance!
